Soon Lee Fishball Noodle @ West Coast Market Square

West Coast Market Square is just a couple of bus stops away from where I stay. Occasionally I will go there for a quick meal. One stall that I frequent often is Soon Lee Fishball Noodle. It is also one of the few stalls at the food centre that has a queue.

Fishball Noodle 3/5

A bowl of Fishball Noodle ($2.50/$3) comes with some fish cake slices, fishball. meatball and a bit of minced meat. The noodle here is only decent with a rustic taste.

If I a not wrong, the fishball and meatball should be factory supplied. The fishball is indeed very springy and bouncy but I hardly tasted any fish flavour in it. It even comes with a bit of saltiness that seems quite common with factory made fishball. The meatball fares better with its taste and texture.

I am not sure why the stall usually has a queue. The fish ball noodle is really just average. I will assume of it strategic location facing the main road as well for the fact that there is no other fishball noodle stall at the food centre.

try Soon Heng Fish Ball Noodles (at the soya bean stalls stretch); their fishballs is handmade and really good. they usually sell out by noon though. there's also a fishball stall near the kueh stal, worth a try. the uncle makes his own meatballs, and fries his own lard.
